Haan is a Silver Partner of The Moodie Davitt Virtual Travel Retail Expo

Spanish personal care company Haan is showcasing its debut product, the Haan Pocket Hand Sanitiser, at the inaugural Moodie Davitt Virtual Travel Retail Expo. Haan is a Silver Partner at the pioneering virtual event, where it will be exhibiting at #Virtual Stand BT-S10.

In travel retail, the brand is distributed by Spanish personal care company Beter. It is currently present in over 50 airports across 15 countries around the world including key travel hubs in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris, Lisbon, Panama, Dallas and Bogota.

The Haan Pocket Hand Sanitiser is a Nordic-inspired (soon-to-be refillable) sanitiser and dispenser that comes in a range of bright colours. The sanitiser is made with a blend of 65% alcohol and aloe vera that kills 99.9% of germs and bacteria. The Haan Pocket Sanitiser is available in five scents inspired by different times of the day: Morning Glory, Dew of Dawn, Citrus Noon, Sunset Fleur and Wood Night.

Haan was launched in 2018 by Co-Founders Eric Armengou and Hugo Rovira and was built on a foundation of social commitment and corporate activism. Its ‘Turning Care Around’ philosophy informs both the company’s product development and corporate social responsibility programme.

This ethos is comprised of two key pillars called ‘Ready-To-Care’ and ‘Ready-To-Change.’ The first represents its commitment to creating consumer-friendly and environmentally conscious personal care products; while the second represents its impressive social activities.

20% of Haan’s profits are invested in projects that combat the global water crisis. The funds are used to support water awareness and education campaigns in developing countries and to build wells in water-deprived communities. Since its launch, Haan has constructed four underground wells in the Benga and Malawi communities in Africa, with another one on the way.

Haan Water Founders Eric Armengou and Hugo Rovira told The Moodie Davitt Report, “Following our attendance to the TFWA Cannes last year with our travel retail distributor partner Beter, this year we wanted to further enhance our visibility in the industry at the Virtual Travel Retail Expo.

“As an international and multi-channel brand, we want to play a special role in travel retail thanks to our trendy and portable hand sanitiser. Our DNA is directly linked with the travel and our product categories will have a special growth in next years.”
